Hello from Mechanicsville Virginia

[smfdco1]

Hello...I just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. I just recently obtained my newest restoration project, a 1969 GMC Suburban 1/2 ton Ambulance. Since getting it home I have been busy like everyone else with a new toy. This is my second Suburban since I towed it home with my '96 GMC 3/4 4X4. I also owned a '71 Chevy pick up when they were new.

I have wanted to restore one of these for sometime now to replicate those that I drove years ago when a member of my local Rescue Squad. It will look good in the garage next to my restored '67 Ford police car.

So far I have gotten quite a bit of useful info from these pages to help me on my way. As soon as I can figure out how to do it I will try and post a few photos. Until then I found a few nights ago several photos of it when it was "for sale" by the original owner and that were posted by a member of this forum back on 10/16/2006 when he was interested in buying it. I got it from the person that won the "sealed bid" back then. Small world....
